    I crashed!

    Hey so i crashed my stang over the winter.. i was driving it because my roommate burned up the clutch in my beater.. anyways I have been trying to repair it on my own and have hit a snag. After replacing the front driver strut i noticed that the tire is forward about an inch as to where it is supposed to be, i have a new contl arm that i am going to install but someone that knows more about cars than myself said that the frame is probably bent... Are you capable of straightening a frame? Or know of any places i should look into? Thanks,
    oh and the car is a 95 GT convertble

    I don't have a way to starighten a frame. You can check with Bighley Auto Body.. Most body shops have frame racks..

      If you already have the lower control arm why not install it and see if that was it. It isn't more than 3 or 4 bolts.
